Author's Note: Thank you for giving this story a look. This story is about what would happen if somebody restored the Greater Grail. In this a new war erupts more similar to Apocrypha. Here Lancer of Red is summoned and along with her master they fight to win a wish from the grail. This is an alternate Timeline to my other story Fate/Valhalpha, so I hope that if you like this you might take a look at that too.


This is the story of Takuma Shiroshi. He has black hair, an average build, and blue eyes. Takuma was leaving school one day to head to the church. While not a religious boy, he was being schooled to be a magus there. He dreamed of the thrill of combat with a fiery passion. He always wanted to be able to fight for what he thought was right. But today he was stopped by his old friend.

"Hey Taku-kun!" A brown haired boy said tauntingly

"No," Taku said in response, "Kuro, just no."

"Aww you're no fun," Kuro said in response, "So wanna hang out today?"

"Oh sorry I can't," Taku said, "I got a lesson today, but how about you meet me by the church at about 18:00? I'll pay for dinner this time."

"Sounds good bud," Kuro said, "Good luck today, I know Kaede-sensei can be rough."

"Sure she can," Taku said, "But that's why I respect her, I'd hate it if she held back on me."

"So you're a masochist?" Kuro said

"Dammit!" Taku yelled, "You KNOW that isn't it!"

"Ha ha yeah but it was to easy!" Kuro said through his laughter, "Well See you at Six then."

"Right," Taku said continuing on his way.

Kaede was a mother figure to Taku. His parents abandoned him to join the army so he lived alone, and Kaede saw his potential. You see Taku IS a magus, however all he's got is healing magic. He practiced from a young age in healing magic hoping to be a doctor but his dreams changed over the recent years.

Taku arrived at the church only to see it wrecked. Taku ran around till he found his mentor.

"Kaede-Sensei!?" Taku yelled, "What happened to you?"

"Takuma?" Kaede said sitting up, but falling down

"Don't Move!" Taku yelled, he began using a healing spell to patch her wounds. She was beaten up really badly.

"Thanks," Kaede said

"It's nothing," Taku said, "Can you explain what happened?"

"A war is coming," Kaede said, "A group of magicians betrayed the church, as it seems something has revived the Holy Grail."

"Holy Grail?" Taku asked, "It's a real thing?"

"Yes," Kaede said, "They killed a lot of good magicians here today, meaning that I need your help."

"Me?!" Taku asked, "What can I do?"

"You are STILL a magus, even if it's not offensive," Kaede explained, "So you and I have to summon servants."

"Servants?" Taku asked, "Hold on, you're serious?"

"Yes," Kaede said, "The stories are true. Come on, if the Black Faction finds the new grail first, then we are going to be in a lot of trouble."

"Black Faction?" Taku asked

"I'll explain everything later, just do as I say for now!" Kaede yelled, and Taku could only nod and follow his mentor.

His mentor gave him instructions on how to summon a servant while she did the same thing.

"I'll go first," Kaede said, "Let's hope for a Saber."

Kaede closed her eyes and her summoning circle opened and a man in a black cape and tuxedo rose from the circle. His skin was white, his hair black, and his eyes a dark green.

"Well," Kaede said, "Not a Saber I can tell."

"I am Caster," Said the man, "Well I guess I would be called Red Caster seeing the circumstances."

"Yes," Kaede said, "I am sure you understand the situation."

"Of course," Caster said, "After all I'm a freaking servant for crying out loud."

"Kinda rude to your master," Taku said

"You do realize just by seeing this I could be inclined to kill you, right?" Caster asked

"He's an ally," Kaede said

"OK good," Caster said, 'Not a fan of killing really."

"Then how are you a servant?" Taku asked

"Well," Caster said, "I would say, but I think it's funnier to mess with people."

"Takuma," Kaede said sternly, "Do as I did"

"Right," Taku said as he held his hand out, and out of the circle rose, a little girl, no older than 10. Her hair was brown and was braided, her skin kinda tanned, her eyes hazel, and she wore a blue Chinese dress.

"Huh?!" Taku said

"A child hero?" Kaede asked

"Well they DO say a servant fits their summoner," Caster taunted, but then a spear was at his throat

"Caster," Lancer said, "Do not taunt my master please, after all we are both on the red side and I would hate to have animosity between allies."

"It was a joke," Caster replied, "Geez, rude much."

"So no Saber yet," Kaede said with slight disappointment, "Well we are glad to have you two on our side, Caster, Lancer."

"Right," Lancer said bowing, "Master I promise to be the best servant you could have asked for."

"Gonna turn him into a cradle robber?" Caster joked, resulting in the spear at his neck again, "Geez, everybody's a critic huh."

"Well," Taku said, "I am still lost as to what exactly is happening, but I am willing to help."

"Well," Kaede said, "I know I promised, so I'll explain what happened here."


Note 2: Short I know but I plan to make longer chapters later. I hope that you will enjoy this, and please be honest in your reviews, I enjoy reading them whether they praise of point out what I can improve.
